1.

This table assumes the individual is taxed at the top marginal income tax rate. Levies other than federal and provincial income tax, the employer portion of provincial health tax and the employee portion of Northwest Territories and Nunavut payroll taxes are not considered (e.g., Canada Pension Plan contributions). Different results may arise in special circumstances (e.g., for credit unions).

2.
